Green Lane Works
The Green Lane Works are a disused industrial facility situated in the City of Sheffield, England. The entrance gate to the works is particularly ornate and has been designated as a Grade II
* listed building. Nikolaus Pevsner called the gate ''“the most spectacular survival of factory architecture in the city”''.〔''Pevsner Architectural Guides - Sheffield'', Ruth Harman & John Minnis, ISBN 0-300-10585-1, Pages 170-171 Gives details of architecture and Pevsner quote.〕 The works are situated in the suburb of Neepsend within the Kelham Island Quarter of the city and date from 1795 although they were extensive alterations in 1860.
==History==
The original Green Lane Works were established in 1795 by the firm of Hoole and Company who were manufacturers of ornamental stove grates and fenders in Bronze and metal. The firm flourished and their products won a first Council medal at The Great Exhibition of 1851 and a Medaille d'honneur at the Exposition Universelle of 1855. This success brought considerable prestige to the firm and its proprietor at the time Henry E. Hoole. In 1859 Hoole was elected Lord Mayor of Sheffield and to celebrate this he had major alterations carried out to the works.〔''"Illustrated Sheffield Guide"'', Pawson & Brailsford, ISBN 0-85409-671-X, Page 174 Gives early history of works.〕
